Abstract: | We calculate the optical properties such as the polarization, the (hyper)polarizabilities, the critical vector potential, etc., in terms of the non‐Hermitian Anderson model of a 6‐site ring model. The dependence of the optical properties on the delocalization transition is investigated. It is found that all the total optical properties nonlinearly increase with the increase of the delocalization. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem, 2001 |
